Patient's question:
Checked for epididymitis, the symptoms are testicular pain, a sense of heaviness and swelling, and a lack of energy, looking tired. How should one treat epididymitis better?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally, inflammation of the urinary and reproductive system spreads backward along the vas deferens to the epididymis, and can be transmitted through the lymphatic and blood systems. It may occur due to prostatitis or urinary tract infection, where bacteriuria refluxes into the ejaculatory duct, causing chemical epididymitis. Experiments have found that fluid can reflux into the seminal vesicles. The harm of orchitis is also significant, affecting fertility and sexual quality. For your condition, it is necessary to undergo relevant tests, including a prostate examination and a semen analysis, to determine if there is prostatitis and fertility issues. Your condition still requires active treatment to completely eliminate severe symptoms.
